I've sunk mine in water and it's kept going, however I was cutting donuts in some thick, soupy mud and the ES quit shifting. A water hose on the shift sensors fixed that problem, although I did have ride a ways in second gear to get to the hose.

DIVE IN!!!!! Mine has been sank, flipped, drowned, rolled, buried, and abused; and she still still runs like the day I bought her.
